After a great year in the big city, I am ready for round 2 of traveling!! Hope to begin in the start of 2014. I would like to find work and travel for 6-12 months. I have some backpacking experience under my belt and would like to see some new places.

Maxime366 heyy! Im flying into new zealand on Jan 26th for about 3 weeks! Im from the US too, just graduated from college and am doing a 6 month backpacking trip (actually starting in Fiji!) Whats your plan, ill be doing all of the south island as well, haven't really planned transportation bc i figured renting a car would be too expensive, so I was looking into bus passes. It would be great to try to plan something, let me know!

divya Hi Maxime! Great to hear from you, it would be great to try and plan. So, my dates are somewhat set as I have a flight out of Auckland --> US on Feb 1. I fly in to Queenstown on Jan 25th, and would love to start the roadtrip Jan 26th afternoon or early Jan 27th. If you are interested, we can talk actual destinations. High level, I would love to see Milford Sound, Franz Joseph / do a glacier hike.

I looked in to renting a car, and for two people it is not too expensive (I put a link with a rough quote at the end of the email. For all wheel drive automatic, ~88NZD / day). I have had many friends do the South Island and they highly recommend driving as you have much more control on what you want to see, where you want to stop etc. Also, I did the North Island via car and I do think it is the best way to go. :)

Excited you are going to Fiji! Loved loved it there, I can share my few thoughts. I am now in Vanuatu for the next two weeks. Look forward to hearing from you! And let me know if you want to talk via email, I find the globetrooper message system a little messy. :)

Maxime366 Hey Ida! Im flying into auckland on jan 26th. I will be there for a couple days as well as rotorua and then im off to the south island for a couple weeks. What are your plans? It would be great to meet up and explore the north island for a bit, let me know!

Aaron SF I'm doing a very similar trip heading to New Zealand in jan then Australia feb then southeast Asia march then china April then Africa may and Europe in July. It's going to be quite an adventure. Maybe our paths will cross.

Maxime366 heyy aaron! Whats your status for your trip? Ill be in New Zealand in late jan- mid feb then to Australia after that!

mgylfa Hey! Im planning a pretty similar trip to yours, although I dont plan on going to Australia. I am a solo traveller looking for companion so meeting up with some people in southeast asia would fantastic. When do you think you'll be there? March-april?

Maxime366 Hi! Yes, I plan on being in southeast asia starting in early March. Hoping to go to Bali, Thailand, Singapore, Phillipinnes and maybe Cambodia. Also thinking about settling down somewhere for a month of two (leaning towards Bali). What are your plans so far? Let me know if your thinking about going there around that time period

Todd Hey, I'd suggest settling down in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Super cheap, very easy to get things done, and lots of longer term travellers to catch up with. That said, I've never been to Bali. Hope it all goes well. :)
